If you’re planning a remodel or addition anywhere from Collins Avenue to the Intracoastal side of town, call us at (254) 272-5876 for a written quote before any work starts.

Styles & brands we work with
General Contractor Services in Sunny Isles Beach
General Contractor Services in Sunny Isles Beach cover the full scope: kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, whole-home renovations, room additions, and the structural work that ties it all together. What makes this city different is the building stock. Roughly half the job here is educated material selection, and the other half is execution. A kitchen remodel in a Collins Avenue high-rise is not the same job as one in a 1980s single-family home near West Dixie Highway. We price and spec accordingly.
Coastal-Spec Kitchen Remodel
Sunny Isles Beach kitchens run $14,000 to $45,000 depending on cabinet line, countertop material, and whether walls are load-bearing. On oceanfront units, we default to 316 stainless hardware, marine-grade hinges on cabinetry, and sealed penetrations everywhere stucco meets framing. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets, Cambria or Caesarstone tops, Kohler or Toto fixtures. We give you the written price before work starts, and the invoice you sign is the invoice you pay.
Load-Bearing Wall and Structural Work
When a wall comes out, the steel that replaces it matters more here than almost anywhere in Florida. On a Collins Avenue oceanfront unit, our crew opened a load-bearing wall for a kitchen remodel and found the original steel lintel already rust-jacked, pushing the subfloor up a quarter inch. We swapped it for a 316 stainless beam and sealed every penetration with polyurethane. That’s the difference between a remodel that lasts and one that fails quietly behind the drywall.

Construction Company in Sunny Isles Beach
Construction Company work in Sunny Isles Beach includes additions, garage conversions, outdoor living spaces, driveways, and full gut renovations. The salt air is the constant. Everything we touch gets spec’d with the ocean in mind: hot-dip galvanized fasteners as the minimum, 316 stainless on anything load-bearing or exposed, sealed paver joints, marine-grade window flashing. It costs more on the front end. It costs far less over ten years.
Paver Driveways and Patios
Paver driveway installation in Sunny Isles Beach runs $7,000 to $18,000. The failure we see most is non-marine joint sand washing out after a couple of storm seasons, leaving pavers loose and shifting. We use sealed joints and compacted base layers rated for tidal groundwater. If you’re replacing an old asphalt driveway, that’s $3,500 to $9,000. If you’re sealing an existing one, $250 to $700. Concrete driveways run $4,500 to $12,000; full driveway replacement is $5,000 to $14,000.
Room Additions and Garage Conversions
Room additions in Sunny Isles Beach run $45,000 to $130,000. Garage conversions sit between $30,000 and $80,000. Every exterior tie-in gets 316 stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and send photo updates before and after each phase. You see the work as it happens, not a summary at the end.
Trusted Brands We Service in Sunny Isles Beach
We stock and install a focused set of brands chosen because they hold up to coastal conditions. Cabinetry from KraftMaid and Wellborn comes with manufacturer backing. Countertops from Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone resist the humidity and UV that wreck cheaper surfaces. Exterior work leans on GAF and CertainTeed roofing, James Hardie siding, and impact-rated window packages. For clients considering modern prefab options, we’re familiar with Abodu and Dvele systems and can integrate them where the building code and HOA allow. We stock common replacement parts locally for Sunny Isles Beach customers, which cuts wait times on punch-list items.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Sunny Isles Beach Homes
- Rust-jacked lintels over windows and doors. Inland-grade steel corrodes from the inside, pushing the framing up and cracking the stucco. We replace with 316 stainless or hot-dip galvanized before the damage reaches the roofline.
- Tea-stained railings and fence posts within 18 months. Even 304 stainless tea-stains in this chloride load. We default to 316 on all exterior hardware, and we tell you why in the quote.
- Loose, shifting pavers from washed-out joints. Regular joint sand doesn’t survive the salt spray and rain cycling. We use sealed joints and compacted base rated for coastal groundwater.
- Pitted window frames and rust streaks on stucco. Marine-grade flashing and 316 screws prevent the bleeding. Cheap flashings fail in two seasons here. The repaint is always more expensive than the right fastener.

FAQs About General Contractor in Sunny Isles Beach
Because the materials that survive here cost more. We use 316 stainless hardware, marine-grade cabinet hinges, sealed penetrations, and polyurethane sealant on every exterior tie-in. That adds roughly 10 to 18 percent to materials versus an inland remodel. The alternative is 304 stainless and standard hinges that tea-stain and bind within 18 months. The cheap spec always costs more by year ten. Call (254) 272-5876 for an exact line-item quote; estimates are free.
Yes, in most cases. Sunny Isles Beach requires permits for driveway replacements when the base is being rebuilt or drainage is changing. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and send photo updates at each phase. The permit cost is included in the written quote, not added later.
316 stainless or hot-dip galvanized, full stop. 304 stainless will tea-stain in this chloride load within a season. We specify it on every railing, fence post, window flange, and roof flashing. If a previous contractor used inland-grade hardware, we replace it as part of the job.
We use marine-grade flashing, 316 stainless screws, and seal every penetration with polyurethane. On roofing, we prefer GAF or CertainTeed systems with coastal-rated underlayment. On windows, impact-rated frames with marine finishes. The difference is visible within two years if the wrong spec was used: pitted aluminum, rust streaks, and leaking flashings. We spec it right the first time. Call (254) 272-5876 for a free estimate.
Yes, and we do it regularly. High-rise work here means coordinating with HOA approval windows, freight elevator schedules, and noise restrictions. We handle the paperwork, the HOA walk-throughs, and the scheduling. Luca Romano has walked more Sunny Isles Beach high-rise kitchens than he can count. The written quote includes any HOA-required documentation and the full scope, so there are no surprises mid-project.
